52 Weeks 52 Books - RAGE AGAINST THE DYING - Week Ending July 1, 2013
RAGE AGAINST THE DYING by Becky Masterman
How
refreshing to read a thriller with a woman who's about my age, and who isn't using knitting needles as her weapon of choice! Fifty-nine year old
Brigid Quinn is smart and a bit unorthodox, a retired FBI agent who is recently married to an ex Catholic priest with two pugs. She suddenly finds herself in the middle of an old unsolved case, that put her into early retirement and just about broke her heart. Definitely not a "cozy" mystery, this gritty and dark tale, lightened by Brigid's wonderful sense of humor, makes this a book you can't put down. I can't wait for the next Brigid Quinn book! ~ Katherine

Dead Bolt - Haunted Home Renovation, Bk 2
Author: Juliet Blackwell
I really like this series. It has mystery and ghosts :). I also like that it has a strong lead female character.
Turner Construction's latest restoration project is a historic Queen Anne Victorian in San Francisco. This time general contractor Mel Turner has to work around the owners who insist on sticking around -- along with some ghosts that insist in their own way that the work stops... — The ghosts aren't the only ones standing in the way of the renovations. A crotchety neighbor, Emile Blunt, secretly wants this house, and could be behind some of the disturbances. But when Emile is found dead, it's Mel who appears guilty. Now she must restore the building -- and her reputation -- before it's too late.
